Such A Wasted Life

Generally my feelings of wanting to be dead are not linked to any kind of self-loathing at all, that’s how it was for years at least. Basically I just didn’t want to be here anymore. Once I turned 20 that changed though.

I was forced to drop out of college. One of the classes I was taking was self-paced (no problem) but the book answers were wrong when it came to test time. I pointed this out to the teacher who argued “you’re doing the lessons too fast it should take you two weeks to do a chapter.” to which I retorted “I took self paced […]

I can’t stand anything anymore. I’m so bitter about everything. i hate my job, my friends are awful, I am stuck in a town that I have lived in my whole life, i didn’t bother applying for any colleges because my grades always sucked and now I’m stuck going to a stupid community college and I don’t want to go to college right now. I am not mentally stable enough to pass any courses and I have to pay out of pocket because I don’t qualify for any financial aid. But I have to go or else I have to pay my parents rent because […]

**This is a jumbled up mess…**

Ever wonder why you bother?Â I always do.Â I find nothing in life that is worth fighting for. I feel lost and alone. But I know I’m not. My family, friends, and girlfriend love me very much. It has been them that has kept me from following through with my dark thoughts. I’m writing here today because I made a pact with myself before I started college. If I could no go through with it, then I have nothing left to offer. I told myself it’s over once I get that email, letter, talking too. People saying you failed! Why bother?

It happened.

Now […]

My education plans and financial situation are unraveling.

I recently found out that I will no longer be eligible for financial aid very soon.Â It doesn’t matter that I got straight A’s last semester; it is because of how many credit hours I have attempted without getting a major, apparently.Â I changed my major a few times and had a few rough semesters, and now that I am truly passionate about my work they are going to cut me off.Â Funny, huh?Â So as of today it seems as well as having no friends, no life, and no money, I have no future.Â I will never finish college.Â And I am doubtful I […]

Don’t know what to do…

written by Danoymous9

So this is probably going to sound dumb but I’mÂ extremelyÂ depressed over my recent break up I don’t want to go into details because I feel it won’t help. After my break up things began to get worse, I found out my grandma is very sick and is getting worse each month and there’s nothing I can do for her at all, can’t even see her. I haven’t been able to make enough money to stay in school andÂ financialÂ aid keepsÂ denyingÂ me, my friends just don’t seem to understand my struggles in my life and kind of seemedÂ annoyedÂ that I keep bringing certain things up. I also feel like […]

when you first get on this site…

When you first get on to this site, they send you to the read this first page, then to [http://www.metanoia.org/suicide/]
That site recommends that you talk to someone, anyone. A hotline, a friend, family member, or religious member…

But what happens when you’re too afraid to call, or don’t have access to a phone when you are ready to turn the switch?
what happens when you’re too young to feel so old and no family member wants to even acknowledge you’re their vicinity when you’re depressed?

what happens when the man you’re in love with is too controlling and you’re not allowed to even have a friend […]
